METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR REPEAT SEQUENCING

A method for sequencing a nucleic acid template includes: (a) performing a first sequencing process including flowing nucleotides and/or reagents to the nucleic acid template according to a first predetermined ordering of nucleotides and/or reagents to obtain a first sequencing result; (b) after the first sequencing process, performing a second sequencing process including flowing nucleotides and/or reagents to the nucleic acid template according to a second predetermined ordering of nucleotides and/or reagents to obtain a second sequencing result, the second predetermined ordering of nucleotides and/or reagents being different from the first predetermined ordering of nucleotides and/or reagents and at least one of the first and second predetermined orderings of nucleotides and/or reagents being designed for repeat sequencing; and (c) determining a sequence of bases corresponding to at least a portion of the nucleic acid template using both the first sequencing result and the second sequencing result.
